In the Haitian religion of Vodou (or Vodun, NOT to be confused with Louisiana's lil joke of a religion known as "voodoo" / hoodoo), there is a phenomenon known as Ritual Possession. During any of the services/rituals of the religion, any of the attendants (whether they believe, participate, or are just an outsider observing) have the possibility of becoming possessed by any one of the many Lwa (spirits) of the religion. Scientific studies of this phenomenon have concluded that being possessed results in an altered state of consciousness, and in some cases, even Americans studying Vodou who had no belief in the religion, as well as outright skeptics, have been possessed.
Possession only lasts for a couple hours, and the possessed person behaves in a manner similar to that of the Lwa possessing them. They dance, speak differently or in different languages, and are seemingly immune to pain. They have prophetic or psychic abilities, able to predicts things in the near future accurately and read minds on occasion.
My mother is Haitian, and practices Vodou. While I haven't had the opportunity to become possessed, she has, and I find it extremely intriguing. I think many would agree. Thats why I'm requesting that a dose designed to simulate the mind state during Lwa possession be made.
PLEASE, no ignorant bigotry about this being some type of satanic shit, or any other uninformed rantings. Vodou is NOT satanic (far from it actually; it's very similar to Catholicism thanks to Haiti's history), and Lwa possession is NOT demonic possession, no matter what those evangelists scream and yell.

Several of the less mainstream religions and spiritual paths have something like "possession" or spirit channeling. I would be interested in seeing some doses that created a sense of extreme relaxation, "ritual head-space" or channeling, the mind-set that creates "Law of Attraction" type of effects, etc...
Don't get me wrong, the recreation drugs files are fun and interesting, but if one were to be able to, say attract more money into their lives, they'd have more time and money to spend on the recreational doses, now wouldn't they? (grin)
I personally think it's a good idea. I'd be interested...

Have you read "The Secret"? That deals with the law of attraction.
